FABruary Weeks 3 & 4...


Fabruary style dare the brain child of Andrea at Fox in Flats was halfway through and I had a thought... what will happen next month? Was I tired of looking at a prompt to dress? The answer was a resounding NO!! I use the prompt as inspiration, to think outside the box and to revel in the glorious world that is style, beauty and fashion.

I have loved Fabruary... Below are the final two weeks of my efforts. I have loved using instagram and twitter to connect with other style lovers scoping out each others efforts.

Prompt List:


Week Three: 15.02.13 - 21.02.13

Day Fifteen: Furry
Not owning any fur (faux or real) I used an inspiration pic.. Carrie in Paris at the end of the Sex and the City series. I have always wanted to style a shot recreating this moment. I love the fur muff. I have since found, in the back of my wardrobe, faux feather necklaces that I could have used, but I stick by this!
 
 
Day Sixteen: Leggy
Stockings with hearts up the back of the legs from Kiss My Button Vintage, love them and will be a fantastic addition to my Parisian wardrobe for May!
 
 
Day Seventeen: Laces
Ribbon laces... for something different (and also because I didn't have any fancy ones!)
 
 
Day Eighteen: Bun
New hair colour -  a good way to show it off? A roughly plaited bun wrapped in a topknot
 

 
Day Ninteen: Polka Dot
Hanging in bed with a bit of luxury wearing my red and white polka dot dressing gown from Peter Aexander. So comfortable and stylish, could almost be a dress!
 
 
Day Twenty: Fragrance
Applying my signature fragrance in the morning, 'Lovely' by Sarah Jessica Parker - if you look closely you can see the gleam of the perfume on my skin...
 
 
Day Twenty One: Red
Red lips and cherry nails to pair with my black shirt with gold sequin collar from Soho in NYC. Wore red tartan shoes when I went out!
 
 
 
Week Four: 22.02.13 - 28.02.13
 
Day Twenty Two: Button Up
A coat from Sunny Girl I picked up when I was in Melbourne two years ago. Perfect for freezing weather. Love the ruffled sides and big buttons. Worn with a polka dot button up shirt.
 
 
Day Twenty Three: Layers
Two outfits, one torrential rainy day. Outfit One: Brunch - black jeans, loose black tshirt, mustard light knit from New York with a vintage leather jacket. Outfit Two: Dinner & Europe planning with my friend - black jeans, black singlet, longsleeved plaid shirt and the vintage jacket. Both worn with jeans tucked into boots.
 
 
Day Twenty Four: Gloss
Home from work, showered and in PJs to watch The Block. No makeup except some lipgloss.
 
 
Day Twenty Five: Kicks
Ballet slippers in the design of sneakers - so cute!
 
 
Day Twenty Six: Vest
Fabric draping vest I scored from Morpeth Emporium, light pink. LOVE IT!
 
 
Day Twenty Seven: Retro
A retro outfit purchased in San Fransisco at an alternative area called the Haight-Ashbury District. From the Betty Page Store (full of retro and pin up clothing). I wear it tied up over a high waisted black skirt from the same store. Andrea asked us to think of a song to pair with our outfits and I knew the perfect 1940s dance number by Benny Goodman called "Sing Sing Sing".
(Find Zarita shortsleeved blouse here, and Catwalk Black Pencil skirt here)
 
 
Day Twenty Eight: Pink
Bad lighting but good for me following four hours sleep after a twelve hour night. Had pink blushed cheeks using Australis Cosmetics products and a pink and purple floral necklace.

  2. Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it
    seems as though you relied on the video to make your point.
    You obviously know what youre talking about, why throw away your intelligence on just posting videos to
    your blog when you could be giving us something enlightening to
    read?

  4. I am really enjoying the theme/design of your blog. Do
    you ever run into any internet browser compatibility issues?
    A few of my blog readers have complained about my blog not
    working correctly in Explorer but looks great in Firefox.
    Do you have any tips to help fix this problem?

  5. Hi would you mind stating which blog platform you're working with? I'm planning to start my own blog soon but I'm having a hard time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I'm looking for something unique.
    P.S Apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!

    1. Hi I just use a platform on blogger.com that I have designed and customized to my needs. No worries with the question, I find basic templates great because you can build on top of them. Hope this helps!
